    Deal, I’m in Sandy, let me know when you want to grab it. It’s a BYOSwitch type of deal.

    It was powered via my switchpro under the hood so it has about a 4 foot pigtail with #10 ring terminals on the ends right now.

    Well I mean the faster I burn through my 265/75s, the sooner I can justify 285s so...

    Whiptail Grill in Springdale just outside Zion NP has a smothered burrito that was to die for (or at least after a full day in the park). As far as the park goes, COME EARLY. By like 8am the crowds are in full force. And its hot as balls. Unfortunately,a storm in July caused a lot of damage so Angel's landing and some of the other good trails have been closed for the foreseeable future. The narrows is still pretty fun though.

    Capitol Reef has lots of good day hiking and is probably my favorite park. Cohab Canyon has tons of narrow slot canyons you can wedge yourself in to. Cassidy Arch is another good one. Very cool to sit at the top and look over the edge. There is a 7 pitch rappel way of getting back to the parking lot, and you often see someone rigging up when you are up top.

    Bryce is a fun park, but it is very controlled, so there isn't much you can get to without braving the dreaded parking at the trailheads. I'd highly recommend going though.

    Depending on where you want your switch you can have this if you don't want to order one and have open spots in the center consol of a second gen

    Just picked up my truck from MM, was there getting the tranny update...

    WOW, night and day difference. Thanks everyone who told me to go to Miller, they were wonderful. Never going back to Karl Malone again.

    Aren’t they great downtown? I don’t feel like I need to take a shower after I leave there.

    Working on them
    Mark Miller does have a decent service crew, if you go to Malone you will never be happy, I guess it has a bit to do with size of business and Volume being small means pay scale is less that equals less attraction for the higher skilled service mechanics <----- just my opinion however when I went there asking some questions and after listening to vague replies I decided this was not going in the direction it needed to go so I left.

    Miller is better than Karl? I haven't had any good experiences at Karl Malone..I was thinking of trying Brent Brown cuz they're about the same distance away from me as Karl is...just the opposite direction. Been meaning to go get that new TSB done on my truck.

    BB is worthless for repairs in my experience. Tried to tell me a wheel bearing wasn't covered under the powertrain warranty, despite me having the warrantly pamphlet that expressly said so IN MY HAND. LHM on the other hand has been great, and serviced a number of my friend's toyotas despite all sorts of mods, no questions asked.
